Enable/Add Data Dedup to Windows 10?
Hey all,
I went ahead with the Windows 10 Upgrade to my main PC. I have a secondary drive (E:) which holds all my music, games, etc; stuff that I like to keep away from a Windows Install. In Windows 8.1 I had the Windows Deduplication enabled on the whole drive. Now, I cannot access any files whatsoever on that drive. Since it's something that constantly works in the background, I forgot about it until I really needed it.
My Question: Is there a way to enable or add Windows Deduplication into Windows 10 yet? The only info I found was from this article (in 2014):
mcakins.com/2014/10/10/enabling-deduplication-on-windows-10-tp/
It's for the Technical Preview. I followed the steps anyway, and I get an error while trying to add the packages:
Error: 0x800f081e
The specified package is not applicable to this image.
If it is not possible, is there a way I can revert and undo the Upgrade and go back to my Windows 8.1 setup? Or do I have to wipe the drive and clean install?
Thanks,
Llama
